Linux Kernel development
#5
And the main issue Mobian is having is with the way megi's changes are currently distributed. As I wrote in https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=18791&pid=120171#pid120171:

That seems to be fairly easy to fix: it just takes someone to set up a mirror on some high-bandwidth host (Pagure, GitLab, GitHub, or maybe even kernel.org), regularly downloading megi's bundles with a cron job and pushing them to the mirror. Then the Mobian maintainers or any other interested people can just work with that mirror and do not have to bother with megi's way to publish the changes (and neither does megi have to change the way they are published).

And that seems already fixed: megi himself has now set up such a clonable mirror on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/megi/linux
